The Body Shop Vitamin E Moisture Lotion SPF 15 Review

With the shops being flooded with numerous types of beauty creams and lotions, I was always riddled by the question about which one is appropriate for my skin. As a teenager, I experimented a lot with different brands and their skin moisturizing products. But as I stepped into my twenties, I started becoming serious about what I applied on my skin. Initially I used to apply a basic moisturizing lotion. But after sometime I realized my skin needed more than just a normal cream. Thus I started my quest for a cream that will not only keep my skin moisturized but will also provide sun protection and keep my skin shielded from environmental damages. Finally, on one of my shopping sprees I came across The Body Shop store. As I stepped into this newly inaugurated store of The Body Shop, I suddenly caught sight of The Body Shop Vitamin E Moisture Lotion SPF 15. Instantly I had a feeling I will not regret trying this product and therefore decided to buy it. Since then, there was no looking back. The Body Shop Vitamin E Moisture Lotion SPF 15 has become an integral part of my daily beauty regime. Whether stepping outside in this summer heat or lazing at home on a holiday, this perfect combination of Vitamin E and SPF 15 keeps my skin well hydrated and moisturized throughout.

My Experience With The Body Shop Vitamin E Moisture Lotion SPF 15:

This is the first product from The Body Shop range of skincare that I picked up 3 years ago. I still keep coming back for it again and again. The Body Shop Vitamin E Moisture Lotion SPF 15 comes in a light peach colored squeeze tube with a transparent flip cap. Its soft rose fragrance adds to the freshness quotient after your refreshing morning shower. The coolest thing about The Body Shop Vitamin E Moisture Lotion is that in spite of its light texture, it does not leak at all when it's kept vertically or carried in your super loaded handbag. I must say that the packaging is really intact and well made.

Thanks to this sweltering heat, I have a tendency to perspire profusely. Moreover I have a very sensitive skin. Hence I always wanted a cream which will not wear off easily and at the same time won't be too heavy or greasy on my skin. When I started using The Body Shop Vitamin E Moisture Lotion with SPF 15, I was amazed by its staying power. Even after being exposed to the sun for quite some time, when I walked into an air-conditioned room my skin doesn't feel dry or tensed at all. Due to its light texture, it can be easily absorbed by the skin thus locking the moisture within.

Only a small amount is enough to keep my skin moisturized and one tube lasts up to 4 months. The amazing light texture of the cream keeps my skin well moisturized and protected without making it look greasy. I am totally in love with this cream. It is indeed a great feeling that I have found the perfect moisturizing cream that suits all my requirements.
